I would presume that for DXCC purposes, Serbia will be the surviving entity of the former Yugoslavia, and Montenegro would be a brand new one?

The unofficial results found that 55.3 percent of voters opted for the change, Journalist Bruce Konviser said. That's slightly more than the 55 percent approval that the European Union said was required for passage. "I'm sure that tonight a democratic Montenegro will be celebrated," Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic said. Although official results are not expected until Monday, people began celebrating inside government buildings Sunday night, and fireworks illuminated the center of the Montenegrin capital, Podgorica. At stake is whether Europe will see the formation of a new country. Montenegro would be a small, mountainous nation along the Adriatic Sea with a total population of about 650,000. Montenegro had been one of six republics within Yugoslavia before the country's violent unraveling in 1991. http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/europe/05/21/montenegro.independence/ -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
